Attendance and Punctuality
Attendance Matters
It is vital that all children attend school for as many days as they can over a school year. We understand that children will get poorly and need to take time off when they are ill. We ask parents and carers to consider carefully when you should should keep your child off school. Please check the link below for guidance.

We ask that you let us know by phoning the school office when your child will be absent from school.
If your child's absence from school is planned please complete a Leave of Absence Form which is available from the school office or can be downloaded
